Be Ready for 2019-2020!

A Note from the DMS Nurse:

Health Record Update:

Each year, every returning LPS student must have a Health Record Update on file in the nurse's office. This form is completed as part of the online registration starting in July. In addition to updating health concerns, this form also allows parents to give consent for the nurse to administer acetaminophen (Tylenol) during the school year. If your child will be taking medication other than Tylenol at school please also complete a Medication Permission Form. If your child has a medical diagnosis of Asthma, Diabetes, Seizures, or a Severe Food Allergy please complete an Action Plan and obtain a physician signature.

REQUIRED Vaccines for Incoming 8th graders (2019-2020):

All incoming 8th graders MUST submit proof of the required Tdap and Meningococcal Conjugate (MCV4) immunizations BEFORE the first day of the '19-20 school year. Students will not be allowed to return to school on August 14, 2019 without proof of immunization on file. Proof of immunization may either be emailed, faxed, or mailed to the nurse.

All Grades: Please submit updated immunizations records to the nurse for the 2019-2020 school year. You may bring them to Orientation or email/mail/fax them to the nurse.
